Conspiracies of the
EPA?
Looking
at the means, sometimes wonder is the process is good or contrary. So I question the process and means of the
EPA.
Back
in the late 60’s and early 70’s, there were serious pollution problems. So the government formed the Environmental
Protection Agency, EPA, to help with America’s pollution problems. This new agency was charged with cleaning up
the air, water and ground. Pollution
standards were set and America began the process of being cleaned up.
At
the same time the pollution cleaning began another alarm was sounded. Global warming, was the new threat to the
world and excess carbon in the air was the culprit, known as greenhouse gas. The internal combustion engine was blamed for
the major source of greenhouse gasses along with power plants.
At
the end of the 70’s the land was clearing up.
Cleaner air and water. Through
the 80’s, most polluting sources were gone.
The power plants were 99%+ clean and so was the internal combustion
engine.

I
bought a used heavy duty pick up for local deliveries. It was a diesel, 1984, almost no black smoke
from the diesel and it 35MPG around the city.
Years later, I ran across a similar Pick Up, same specifications but it
now got 8mpg.
So
the question is…. Is it cleaner then my old truck?
Things
to keep in mind: laws of physics, matter
can not be created or destroyed. So a
gallon of fuel will contain X amount of carbon.
This can not change.
So
my old pick up, every 35 miles would emit X amount of carbon. The newer version would emit 4.1X parts of
carbon. So with new standards, the EPA
is forcing the internal combustion engine to produce more carbon. Yet Carbon is
blamed for causing global warming/climate change.
So
it would appear that the EPA is forcing climate change/global warming.
Across
the board, the EPA has reduced the production capacity of the internal
combustion engine to produce excessive amounts of carbon.
In
conclusion; who is the EPA trying to protect?
Is
the EPA in conspiracy with the climate changers?
